Rancia Castle

Nice castle, not very much to see inside

Nice castle an interesting history

Eight of us from the US arrived to tour the castle on a rainy day only to find out it was closed for the day. The attendant felt so sorry for us that he open the castle just for us. What a wonderful experience this was to tour the medieval tower and dungeon and museum without the normal crowds. the climb up the spiral stairs to the top of the tower was scary but lots of fun. The castle is well preserved and restored. the museum was well laid out and informative. A very positive experience. -keith Marengo from Novato California

Located between Macerata and Tolentino, it is a very well preserved castle and easily accessible thanks to the convenient lift that connects the different floors. Inside a truly suggestive museum dedicated to the "Compagnia della Rancia", a theater company dedicated to musicals. We came across it almost by chance and it was one of the most pleasant surprises in the region. To visit.

Half of the castle is not accessible due to an earthquake, rightly so. But they make you pay the full price ticket I don't find it right. A piece of advice don't go I repeat don't go !!! For what you can see it's not worth it
